ITT: POST YOUR FAVORITE POKEMON HARDMODE: It can't be pleb tier, I.e. Charizard, mewtwo, lucario, pikachu. Dante must die mode: One from each gen, no exceptions.
Starting off with my main lady Bertha. She's a beaut. Look at that darling smile on her.

My nigger. I always thought parasect was cool as hell. but then I found out he's weak as all fuck even for a normal story-mode team Saddest thing ever.
I like Quagsire. Something about his pokedex descriptions just made him grow on me. Just a mellow dopey fucker 24/7. A lot of the early generation water pokemon are cool.

Just saying, stupid pokemon breeding limitations, it shouldn't be a thing that GF makes it harder to breed certain pokemon with those male to female ratios.

It was Vivillon for a long time, but - even though I don't have, or even plan to get, S/M - Type: Null is just too beautiful.
If you want one from each gen:
I used one well enough in LeafGreen a few months ago. Problem is that, in gen III, she doesn't actually get any bug moves beyond Leech Life, so I had to bring her to the E4 with that and Return. (Didn't use a Normal-type that run.)
Also, she got Spore - and not too late in the game, either. So, not as useless as you might expect.
